Clean, great communication, awesome theme with cutest little details. Small items that made the stay even better - tea, coffee, sugar etc Super close to the bars, restaurants and seafront. The only negative is its very noisy on a fri/sat night from the surrounding bars but they supply earplugs which is a great touch! Loved it and perfect for our girls weekend!

Fantastic location in Brighton

This is a compact location for six people right in the heart of Brighton with everything you need close to hand. The Alice in Wonderland theming is cute and perfect for the tiny cottage. A bit noisy at night because of its location, but nothing to spoil a great city break. Loved it

Fab cottage

Cottage is great, very cosy and the location for being close to all the attractions of Brighton. The downside of the location is the noise when people using the alley way go home… one night students seemed to flow past making a racket till gone 1am… the other nights were not as noisy but when your on holiday doesn’t seem to matter. Would recommend

Cottage in Wonderland

We had a wonderful weekend in Brighton and can’t thank the host enough for allowing us to stay. On arrival we were a little concerned at how little the cottage seemed in comparison to the photos but actually it was perfect. We were here for a 7 person Hen Do and it was the perfect location in the middle of all the hustle and bustle - not a great place for any light sleepers though as the lane is busy and the bass from surrounding pubs/clubs is loud. (7th person had to sleep downstairs on the lane and the door doesn’t feel very secure so I’d suggest 6 people comfortably) The cottage is so beautifully decorated which was amazing for our Alice themed hen do, clean and well equipped and the host went above and beyond supplying coffee/tea/sugar, ear plugs and toiletries. Only additions we could suggest would be have extra toilet roll and bin bags, have fans in the rooms as they were warm and outside too loud to open the windows. For those staying for the first time, the bin is in the cupboard under the stairs!

Loved it

Booking was super easy and the host was extremely helpful and went above and beyond for us. They had supplied us some tea/coffee/sugar/milk wine and few bits which was lovely. The bed description for rooms isn’t as shown but the host had messaged me saying 2 beds downstairs so this really wasn’t an issue for us. The sofa beds not that comfy so I would say 6 people max but this in no way ruined our 2 night stay. We were missing one duvet and the host got this sorted straight away with no problem. The cottage was small but as we were on a girls weekend we didn’t spend much time in it so was perfect for what we wanted. The location was brilliant and had everything close by. A pub either side so be mindful its loud but we were supplied ear plugs which worked a treat so again this did not affect us at all. We are getting another date in the diary as we will 100% be returning.

A beautiful property, with fantastic communication and help. However there are some negatives

The apartment is in a fantastic location, it’s clean and has beautiful decor. Jacqueline was extremely helpful before we arrived she was very quick to respond to questions and was accommodating with our requests. There were 6 of us staying at the property which advertised 6-8 people, I would say 6 maximum should stay here. I think it fits 4/5 people comfortably. The 2 twin bedrooms are fine the 3rd bedroom with the double bed was so small, the room just about fits a double bed and a small gap between the bed and the sink. When in the bed your feet touch the wall and it feels very claustrophobic. There is no space to have any luggage at all! This room is suitable for 1 person. As the room was so small we had to use a sofa bed, this was probably the most uncomfortable thing I have ever slept on! So if your planning to use it I would recommend bringing extra bedding to give it some padding. We were a group of girls on a hens do so we were up late, the music in the fantastic pubs next door went on until 3am not 12am as described. It was so loud at 2.30 in the morning we were lying in bed trying to sleep and we’re singing along with the words to the songs. You can actually feel the room almost vibrating. So if you want to sleep before 3am take some ear defenders and some sleeping aids. We did have a nice stay here but we were very tired due to the lack of sleep.

Great location, very small rooms

The decor is imaginative and photographs well. The cottage is tiny but has many good features. Not suitable for older adults. We had a fun stay.

Gorgeous!

I booked the Alice in Wonderland cottage for my 40th birthday weekend and it was fabulous! The house is small, but perfect for our needs and the decor was amazing and incredibly cute, with clearly a lot of thought and detail put into it. It was exceptionally clean and well provisioned. Jacqueline the owner was excellent throughout the booking and went above and beyond with our welcome to the property! The location is perfect - right in the heart of the Brighton Lanes and about 2 minutes stroll from the seafront. I highly recommend staying here! Thank you Jacqueline! :) x

Perfect Location - Cosy comfort

We were two families 4 adults and 3 children staying at the Looking Glass Cottage in the beginning of May. The apartment is small and cosy, and just what we needed to enjoy Brighton. Everything we needed was right at our doorstep: Food, restaurants, pubs, bars, shopping and the beach. The Looking Glass Cottage comes highly recommended for anyone under 2 meters tall - it's Brighton at it's best.

A wonderland place to stay

An excellent venue, close to all amenities: shops, restaurants, seafront and anything else you could want. The house was perfect for our stay and had everything we needed. We were out most of the time, so it suited our needs. Jacqueline was very helpful with any information required and prompt with replies. Suggestions we made for tiny improvements were taken on board. Only criticism is sofas little uncomfortable for long periods of time. Well worth staying

AMAZING!!

Good sized property, clean (for a clean freak like myself everything was to 5 star standard!) and well maintained throughout. Perfect for a week away with my 5 other friends, we had an amazing time and would love to go back again this year! Our internet (Wifi) did not work but the problem was solved as soon as we rang Jacqueline. Would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a quirky get a away property!!

What a treat

I cannot recommend this beautiful city home highly enough! The attention to detail and ease of booking from start to finish was second to none. Amazing location, secure, beautiful decor, quirky detail, thoughtful hostess, awesome shower, excellent little outside area, even ice trays!, good towels, comfortable beds! Not sure what more I could have asked for in all honestly. 1000/10! Please visit!
